Making Change in Education for Chicano Students


Over 80 graduates of the Mexican American Education Project  and community members came together on Oct. 11/12, 2013 at CSU Sacramento to begin the recording of the history of the Mexican American Education Project ( 1968-1973) in Sacramento. The event was recorded and a video transcript should be available by 2014. 
The fundamental purpose of the Mexican American Education Project was to prepare activists as change agents- usually working in schools. Follow up research will document the success and the problems of the effort.
Photos from the event are up on the Chicano Digital History Project .
These  are of participants in the event: Recuerdos del Moviemiento Chicano 1965-1980.
